The reactions taking place in a galvanic cell are given. The sketch of the given galvanic cell and the value of K for the given equilibrium reaction is to be calculated. Concept introduction: A galvanic cell is a device that converts chemical energy into electrical energy and therefore spontaneous reaction takes place in the galvanic cell. It consists of two half cells having one electrode each that is present in contact with the solution of its electrolyte. To determine: The sketch of given galvanic cell with labeled cathode, anode, concentration of ions and direction of electron flow.
